<span id="pep-405"></span><h2>PEP 405: Virtual Environments<a class="headerlink" href="#pep-405-virtual-environments" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h2>
<p>Virtual environments help create separate Python setups while sharing a
system-wide base install, for ease of maintenance.  Virtual environments
have their own set of private site packages (i.e. locally-installed
libraries), and are optionally segregated from the system-wide site
packages.  Their concept and implementation are inspired by the popular
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">virtualenv</span></code> third-party package, but benefit from tighter integration
with the interpreter core.</p>
<p>This PEP adds the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/venv.html#module-venv" title="venv: Creation of virtual environments."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">venv</span></code></a> module for programmatic access, and the
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pyvenv</span></code> script for command-line access and
administration.  The Python interpreter checks for a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pyvenv.cfg</span></code>,
file whose existence signals the base of a virtual environment's directory
tree.</p>

<p>The implementation of <span class="target" id="index-4"></span><a class="pep reference external" href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3118"><strong>PEP 3118</strong></a> has been significantly improved.</p>
<p>The new memoryview implementation comprehensively fixes all ownership and
lifetime issues of dynamically allocated fields in the Py_buffer struct
that led to multiple crash reports. Additionally, several functions that
crashed or returned incorrect results for non-contiguous or multi-dimensional
input have been fixed.</p>
<p>The memoryview object now has a PEP-3118 compliant getbufferproc()
that checks the consumer's request type. Many new features have been
added, most of them work in full generality for non-contiguous arrays
and arrays with suboffsets.</p>
<p>The documentation has been updated, clearly spelling out responsibilities
for both exporters and consumers. Buffer request flags are grouped into
basic and compound flags. The memory layout of non-contiguous and
multi-dimensional NumPy-style arrays is explained.</p>

<h3>Features<a class="headerlink" href="#features" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>All native single character format specifiers in struct module syntax
(optionally prefixed with '&#64;') are now supported.</li>
<li>With some restrictions, the cast() method allows changing of format and
shape of C-contiguous arrays.</li>
<li>Multi-dimensional list representations are supported for any array type.</li>
<li>Multi-dimensional comparisons are supported for any array type.</li>
<li>One-dimensional memoryviews of hashable (read-only) types with formats B,
b or c are now hashable.  (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in <a class="reference external" href="https://bugs.python.org/issue13411">bpo-13411</a>.)</li>
<li>Arbitrary slicing of any 1-D arrays type is supported. For example, it
is now possible to reverse a memoryview in O(1) by using a negative step.</li>

<h3>API changes<a class="headerlink" href="#api-changes" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>The maximum number of dimensions is officially limited to 64.</li>
<li>The representation of empty shape, strides and suboffsets is now
an empty tuple instead of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code>.</li>
<li>Accessing a memoryview element with format 'B' (unsigned bytes)
now returns an integer (in accordance with the struct module syntax).
For returning a bytes object the view must be cast to 'c' first.</li>
<li>memoryview comparisons now use the logical structure of the operands
and compare all array elements by value. All format strings in struct
module syntax are supported. Views with unrecognised format strings
are still permitted, but will always compare as unequal, regardless
of view contents.</li>

<span id="pep-393"></span><h2>PEP 393: Flexible String Representation<a class="headerlink" href="#pep-393-flexible-string-representation" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h2>
<p>The Unicode string type is changed to support multiple internal
representations, depending on the character with the largest Unicode ordinal
(1, 2, or 4 bytes) in the represented string.  This allows a space-efficient
representation in common cases, but gives access to full UCS-4 on all
systems.  For compatibility with existing APIs, several representations may
exist in parallel; over time, this compatibility should be phased out.</p>
<p>On the Python side, there should be no downside to this change.</p>
<p>On the C API side, PEP 393 is fully backward compatible.  The legacy API
should remain available at least five years.  Applications using the legacy
API will not fully benefit of the memory reduction, or - worse - may use
a bit more memory, because Python may have to maintain two versions of each
string (in the legacy format and in the new efficient storage).</p>
<div class="section" id="functionality">
<h3>Functionality<a class="headerlink" href="#functionality" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>
<p>Changes introduced by <span class="target" id="index-6"></span><a class="pep reference external" href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0393"><strong>PEP 393</strong></a> are the following:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Python now always supports the full range of Unicode code points, including
non-BMP ones (i.e. from <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">U+0000</span></code> to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">U+10FFFF</span></code>).  The distinction between
narrow and wide builds no longer exists and Python now behaves like a wide
build, even under Windows.</li>
<li>With the death of narrow builds, the problems specific to narrow builds have
also been fixed, for example:<ul>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="../library/functions.html#len" title="len"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">len()</span></code></a> now always returns 1 for non-BMP characters,
so <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">len('\U0010FFFF')</span> <span class="pre">==</span> <span class="pre">1</span></code>;</li>
<li>surrogate pairs are not recombined in string literals,
so <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">'\uDBFF\uDFFF'</span> <span class="pre">!=</span> <span class="pre">'\U0010FFFF'</span></code>;</li>
<li>indexing or slicing non-BMP characters returns the expected value,
so <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">'\U0010FFFF'[0]</span></code> now returns <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">'\U0010FFFF'</span></code> and not <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">'\uDBFF'</span></code>;</li>
<li>all other functions in the standard library now correctly handle
non-BMP code points.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The value of <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.maxunicode" title="sys.maxunicode"><code class="xref py py-data docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.maxunicode</span></code></a> is now always <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">1114111</span></code> (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0x10FFFF</span></code>
in hexadecimal).  The <code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PyUnicode_GetMax()</span></code> function still returns
either <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0xFFFF</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0x10FFFF</span></code> for backward compatibility, and it should
not be used with the new Unicode API (see <a class="reference external" href="https://bugs.python.org/issue13054">bpo-13054</a>).</li>
<li>The <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">./configure</span></code> flag <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--with-wide-unicode</span></code> has been removed.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="performance-and-resource-usage">
<h3>Performance and resource usage<a class="headerlink" href="#performance-and-resource-usage" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>
<p>The storage of Unicode strings now depends on the highest code point in the string:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>pure ASCII and Latin1 strings (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">U+0000-U+00FF</span></code>) use 1 byte per code point;</li>
<li>BMP strings (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">U+0000-U+FFFF</span></code>) use 2 bytes per code point;</li>
<li>non-BMP strings (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">U+10000-U+10FFFF</span></code>) use 4 bytes per code point.</li>
</ul>
<p>The net effect is that for most applications, memory usage of string
storage should decrease significantly - especially compared to former
wide unicode builds - as, in many cases, strings will be pure ASCII
even in international contexts (because many strings store non-human
language data, such as XML fragments, HTTP headers, JSON-encoded data,
etc.).  We also hope that it will, for the same reasons, increase CPU
cache efficiency on non-trivial applications. The memory usage of
Python 3.3 is two to three times smaller than Python 3.2, and a little
bit better than Python 2.7, on a Django benchmark (see the PEP for
details).</p>

<span id="pep-397"></span><h2>PEP 397: Python Launcher for Windows<a class="headerlink" href="#pep-397-python-launcher-for-windows" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h2>
<p>The Python 3.3 Windows installer now includes a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">py</span></code> launcher application
that can be used to launch Python applications in a version independent
fashion.</p>
<p>This launcher is invoked implicitly when double-clicking <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">*.py</span></code> files.
If only a single Python version is installed on the system, that version
will be used to run the file. If multiple versions are installed, the most
recent version is used by default, but this can be overridden by including
a Unix-style &quot;shebang line&quot; in the Python script.</p>
<p>The launcher can also be used explicitly from the command line as the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">py</span></code>
application. Running <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">py</span></code> follows the same version selection rules as
implicitly launching scripts, but a more specific version can be selected
by passing appropriate arguments (such as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-3</span></code> to request Python 3 when
Python 2 is also installed, or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-2.6</span></code> to specifclly request an earlier
Python version when a more recent version is installed).</p>
<p>In addition to the launcher, the Windows installer now includes an
option to add the newly installed Python to the system PATH.  (Contributed

<p>The hierarchy of exceptions raised by operating system errors is now both
simplified and finer-grained.</p>

reasons.</p>
<p>Also, it is now easier to catch a specific error condition.  Instead of
inspecting the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">errno</span></code> attribute (or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">args[0]</span></code>) for a particular
constant from the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/errno.html#module-errno" title="errno: Standard errno system symbols."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">errno</span></code></a> module, you can catch the adequate
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/exceptions.html#OSError" title="OSError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OSError</span></code></a> subclass.  The available subclasses are the following:</p>

</ul>
<p>And the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/exceptions.html#ConnectionError" title="ConnectionError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ConnectionError</span></code></a> itself has finer-grained subclasses:</p>
<ul class="simple">

<li><a class="reference internal" href="../library/exceptions.html#ConnectionRefusedError" title="ConnectionRefusedError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ConnectionRefusedError</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="../library/exceptions.html#ConnectionResetError" title="ConnectionResetError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ConnectionResetError</span></code></a></li>
</ul>
<p>Thanks to the new exceptions, common usages of the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/errno.html#module-errno" title="errno: Standard errno system symbols."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">errno</span></code></a> can now be

<p>PEP 380 adds the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yield</span> <span class="pre">from</span></code> expression, allowing a <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-generator"><span class="xref std std-term">generator</span></a> to
delegate
part of its operations to another generator. This allows a section of code
containing <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/simple_stmts.html#yield"><code class="xref std std-keyword docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yield</span></code></a> to be factored out and placed in another generator.
Additionally, the subgenerator is allowed to return with a value, and the
value is made available to the delegating generator.</p>
<p>While designed primarily for use in delegating to a subgenerator, the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yield</span>
<span class="pre">from</span></code> expression actually allows delegation to arbitrary subiterators.</p>
<p>For simple iterators, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yield</span> <span class="pre">from</span> <span class="pre">iterable</span></code> is essentially just a shortened
form of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">for</span> <span class="pre">item</span> <span class="pre">in</span> <span class="pre">iterable:</span> <span class="pre">yield</span> <span class="pre">item</span></code>:</p>

<p>However, unlike an ordinary loop, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yield</span> <span class="pre">from</span></code> allows subgenerators to

<p>The main principle driving this change is to allow even generators that are
designed to be used with the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">send</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">throw</span></code> methods to be split into
multiple subgenerators as easily as a single large function can be split into

<h2>PEP 421: Adding sys.implementation<a class="headerlink" href="#pep-421-adding-sys-implementation" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h2>
<p>A new attribute on the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#module-sys" title="sys: Access system-specific parameters and functions."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys</span></code></a> module exposes details specific to the
implementation of the currently running interpreter.  The initial set of
attributes on <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.implementation" title="sys.implementation"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.implementation</span></code></a> are <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">name</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">version</span></code>,
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">hexversion</span></code>, and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cache_tag</span></code>.</p>
<p>The intention of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.implementation</span></code> is to consolidate into one namespace
the implementation-specific data used by the standard library.  This allows
different Python implementations to share a single standard library code base
much more easily.  In its initial state, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.implementation</span></code> holds only a
small portion of the implementation-specific data.  Over time that ratio will
shift in order to make the standard library more portable.</p>
<p>One example of improved standard library portability is <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cache_tag</span></code>.  As of
Python 3.3, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.implementation.cache_tag</span></code> is used by <a class="reference internal" href="../library/importlib.html#module-importlib" title="importlib: The implementation of the import machinery."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">importlib</span></code></a> to

<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">importlib</span></code> for its built-in import system may use <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cache_tag</span></code> to control
the caching behavior for modules.</p>
<div class="section" id="simplenamespace">
<h3>SimpleNamespace<a class="headerlink" href="#simplenamespace" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>

However, unlike <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">object</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SimpleNamespace</span></code> instances

multiple benefits to this change. First, it has allowed for more of the
machinery powering import to be exposed instead of being implicit and hidden
within the C code. It also provides a single implementation for all Python VMs
supporting Python 3.3 to use, helping to end any VM-specific deviations in
import semantics. And finally it eases the maintenance of import, allowing for
future growth to occur.</p>
<p>For the common user, there should be no visible change in semantics.  For
those whose code currently manipulates import or calls import
programmatically, the code changes that might possibly be required are covered
in the <a class="reference internal" href="#porting-python-code">Porting Python code</a> section of this document.</p>
<div class="section" id="new-apis">
<h3>New APIs<a class="headerlink" href="#new-apis" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h3>
<p>One of the large benefits of this work is the exposure of what goes into
making the import statement work. That means the various importers that were
once implicit are now fully exposed as part of the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/importlib.html#module-importlib" title="importlib: The implementation of the import machinery."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">importlib</span></code></a> package.</p>

<p>Beyond the expanse of what <a class="reference internal" href="../library/importlib.html#module-importlib" title="importlib: The implementation of the import machinery."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">importlib</span></code></a> now exposes, there are other
visible changes to import. The biggest is that <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.meta_path" title="sys.meta_path"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.meta_path</span></code></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.path_hooks" title="sys.path_hooks"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.path_hooks</span></code></a> now store all of the meta path finders and path entry
hooks used by import.  Previously the finders were implicit and hidden within
the C code of import instead of being directly exposed. This means that one can
now easily remove or change the order of the various finders to fit one's needs.</p>
<p>Another change is that all modules have a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">__loader__</span></code> attribute, storing the
loader used to create the module. <span class="target" id="index-20"></span><a class="pep reference external" href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0302"><strong>PEP 302</strong></a> has been updated to make this
attribute mandatory for loaders to implement, so in the future once 3rd-party
loaders have been updated people will be able to rely on the existence of the
attribute. Until such time, though, import is setting the module post-load.</p>
<p>Loaders are also now expected to set the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">__package__</span></code> attribute from
<span class="target" id="index-21"></span><a class="pep reference external" href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0366"><strong>PEP 366</strong></a>. Once again, import itself is already setting this on all loaders
from <a class="reference internal" href="../library/importlib.html#module-importlib" title="importlib: The implementation of the import machinery."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">importlib</span></code></a> and import itself is setting the attribute post-load.</p>
<p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code> is now inserted into <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.path_importer_cache" title="sys.path_importer_cache"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.path_importer_cache</span></code></a> when no finder
can be found on <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.path_hooks" title="sys.path_hooks"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.path_hooks</span></code></a>. Since <a class="reference internal" href="../library/imp.html#imp.NullImporter" title="imp.NullImporter"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">imp.NullImporter</span></code></a> is not
directly exposed on <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.path_hooks" title="sys.path_hooks"><code class="xref py py-attr docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.path_hooks</span></code></a> it could no longer be relied upon to
always be available to use as a value representing no finder found.</p>
<p>All other changes relate to semantic changes which should be taken into
consideration when updating code for Python 3.3, and thus should be read about

<h2>A Finer-Grained Import Lock<a class="headerlink" href="#a-finer-grained-import-lock" title="永久链接至标题">¶</a></h2>
<p>Previous versions of CPython have always relied on a global import lock.
This led to unexpected annoyances, such as deadlocks when importing a module
would trigger code execution in a different thread as a side-effect.
Clumsy workarounds were sometimes employed, such as the
<a class="reference internal" href="../c-api/import.html#c.PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock" title="PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock"><code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock()</span></code></a> C API function.</p>
<p>In Python 3.3, importing a module takes a per-module lock.  This correctly
serializes importation of a given module from multiple threads (preventing
the exposure of incompletely initialized modules), while eliminating the
aforementioned annoyances.</p>

</dl>
<p>The new C version of the decimal module integrates the high speed libmpdec
library for arbitrary precision correctly-rounded decimal floating point
arithmetic. libmpdec conforms to IBM's General Decimal Arithmetic Specification.</p>
<p>Performance gains range from 10x for database applications to 100x for
numerically intensive applications. These numbers are expected gains
for standard precisions used in decimal floating point arithmetic. Since
the precision is user configurable, the exact figures may vary. For example,
in integer bignum arithmetic the differences can be significantly higher.</p>

to the header name.  Address and Date headers have additional attributes
that give you access to the parsed data of the header.  This means you can now

<p>You will note that the unicode display name is automatically encoded as
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">utf-8</span></code> when the message is serialized, but that when the header is accessed

<p>In summary, if you use one of the new policies, header manipulation works the
way it ought to:  your application works with unicode strings, and the email
